"★★★★★
"Absolutely recommend Ericka! She is very knowledgable about the East Bay real estate market and was such a pleasure to work with. She was instrumental in helping our offer get accepted by the seller and connected us with a mortgage lender who helped us close in 10 days. Couldn't have done this without Ericka's hard work and being so on top of everything. You will be in great hands if you choose her as your agent."
★★★★★
"I don't know how we lucked into working with Ericka, but I can't imagine going through this process without her. We are first time home buyers and Ericka walked us through every question, regulation, and policy we asked about. She was also instrumental in helping us close in just 10 days, which would not have been possible without her quick responsiveness and local knowledge."
★★★★★
"We engaged Ericka as our agent as soon as we began to plan our move to the bay area from the east coast. We were immediately impressed with her ability to understand our needs and wants as buyers. She showed us many properties and was extremely attentive and responsive to the changes in our priorities. Ericka was able to retain her good humor and patience as our goals and priorities evolved.
When we identified a property we liked, Ericka guided us through all of the California-specific rules and procedures, which were totally new to us. Whenever we had a question – and we had many – Ericka would provide an answer or point us in the right direction. When we decided it was in our interest to take a small mortgage, she put us in touch with a good lender. During negotiations with the seller, she always respected our position, and we never felt the least bit pressured to settle. Ericka extended her support and guidance after signing the contract to ensure we could easily navigate the purchase process.
We would recommend Ericka to anyone looking to buy a house in the east bay area. She works hard, listens well, and finds solutions to the many little snags that can come up when buying a house."

"Working with Ericka was wonderful! She found us the perfect house and we couldn't be happier. At first the houses we were looking at didn't really fit us, but once Ericka got to know us and spent some time with us, the houses she picked got better and better until we found just the right one! House hunting obviously takes some patience, but she made it all super easy and relatively stress fee. My one piece of feedback would be that she could have explained things a little better - slowed down and spent the time to tell us more about what was going on. We were first-time home buyers. But other than that, it was a great relationship and everything went really well. Ericka is fast, and gets stuff done - quickly! We really appreciated her hustle, her negotiation skills, and it felt like she had our backs and was looking out for us. I would definitely recommend Ericka to others!"

"My husband and I couldn't imagine buying our first home with anyone but Ericka. She is very knowledgeable, quickly learns your preferences, and treats you like family. I'm sure she had other clients while working with us, but we couldn't tell because she was always so quick to respond and accommodating with her time. We really felt like she had our best interest at heart and she made home buying more fun than stressful. Thank you, Ericka!!! "
